Winning the Democratic Primary guarantees him a spot on the ballot. If the gormless dems want to pull some strings and run Cuomo as well they can certainly do that. Compromising with Nazis isn’t going to help Mamdani.

While I don’t believe the right is all Hitlers, are we able to agree that at least some small subset of them and of their leadership have truly disturbing ideals and goals that could fairly be compared to those of Nazis?
Who cares? How does that have anything to do with the elimination of profit motive in all social goods.
Mamdani needs to run to get the DNC suckups to get on board though
why does Mamdani need any of that support at all? He has the nom, he is on the ballot, NYC will be voting for him. Obama and the DNC aren’t needed at all.
That is the natural extension of your line of thinking is it not? Which users are “persecutable” by brazilian/Israeli law? If it’s not just the citizens of Brazil (which i’m ok with, obviously a nation should be able to pass laws that apply to their citizens) but everyone “persecutable,” doesn’t that mean that a country that is sufficiently able to persecute anyone in the world is now justified to enforce their laws upon the entire world?
So you are telling me that when Israel makes their definition of “anti-semitism” illegal that everyone in the entire world that uses the internet has to abide by it? That doesn’t seem desirable or sane at all.
In 2014, after years of debate, Brazil’s Congress ratified Law 12.965/2014, the Internet Civil Framework. This law required social media companies to delete posts and deplatform users who broke Brazilian laws. However, it placed the burden on Brazilian courts to identify the posts and accounts.
Is this meant to apply to all “users” of the platform or only Brazilian Citizens?
If it applies to Brazilian Citizens, that’s all fine and good. But if I break brazilian law by criticizing their government, is lemmy.ml expected to “deplatform” and “censor” me?
American Intellectual property laws have been inadequate and damaging to everyone except Disney since Sonny Bono extended their effects to 70 years past the death of the author. It’s important to point out that original copyright length was ~7 years. This is just another example of IP laws needing to catch up to the digital age, and not be an excuse for capitalist dragons to horde all of human knowledge away behind licensing fees.
I hope he does. It’ll be nothing but a vanity run that will waste a ton of money belonging to the worst people in the world.
Wow kneejerk pseudo-science enshrined into law because one person out of 10,000,000 used a gun to kill someone. Do you think if he had used a car instead you’d see a similar response? why or why not?
Ballot access for NYC mayorial candidacy is 100% officiated. There are explicit rules and requirements that if you meet you are 100% GUARANTEED ballot access. By simply winning the primary, he is 100% guaranteed to be on that Mayoral Ballot. He is also 100% allowed to run with under the Democratic Ticket. There is nothing at all the DNC, a national grifter org, can do to affect his access to the NYC Mayoral Ballot.
They can choose to gather signature and run Cuomo, they can run back other candidates, they can spend millions backing the AIPAC preferred candidates, but they are going to do that regardless of what Mamdani does or says.
